The Meeting - third installment from 1/26/08

Tucker and Sonny met yesterday afternoon in my backyard. AT first they both had their hackles up, but it didn't take long before they MUTUALLY decided hey, he's not such a bad guy, and they commenced to running and jumping and posturing and acting like a couple of tough males, at one point they were so into their play that I couldn't get their attention to get them into the house! This morning the same thing, a room full of rough housers, and this will surprise you,at one point Dolly was right in the thick of it and doing a little humping of her own, after all, she must figure, she's the matriarch, getting those two in line or sending them to time out, she was putting her two cents in. Tucker is a pacer, he is right now patrolling the perimeter, checking out the windows for marauding squirrels. Sonny is calmly grooming himself on the blanket next to his crate, and Dolly is at my feet as usual, keeping me safe.
This is exactly what I wanted.
